KDLR Studio in 1928 - Hotel Grayson

A publicity photo postcard promoting the station, which was in an upper room of a hotel in downtown Devils Lake. The photo shows Bert Wick and Harold Serumgard, the two partners that started the station, George Bairey, an announcer, and Inez Nerhaugen, who played music. The studio consisted of two microphones, some musical instruments in the corner, and the piano. The bell is for sound effects, and was rung every time there was a live commercial for Bell Drug Store, a regular advertiser of the time.
